Description: München, Georg Müller, 1924. 2 volumes. 4to. Half cloth. With 230 photographic plates. XX,333 pp. 'Stutterheim made the basic assumption that the Ramayana stories in Indonesia were not merely revised versions of the classical Valmiki epic, but that they were derived from Indian folk literature, which exhibits many elements basically similar to those in Indonesian folk stories. It was also this fact which explained the smoothness of the process whereby these Indian Ramayana folk stories were integrated into the Indonesian folk literature' (Koentjaraningrat, Anthropology in Indonesia, p.141).
